Will there be a 3rd party candidate for president?

Former New Mexico Gov. Gary Johnson, a little-noticed Republican presidential candidate, is considering running on the Libertarian ticket.

“We’re definitely attempting to recruit Gary,” said Adrian Wyllie, Chairman of the Libertarian Party of Florida, who wants Johnson to drop out of the GOP primary. “We're hoping he decides to join the LP and compete for the nomination...“Gov. Johnson’s record has always been libertarian,” said Wyllie.

“I guess you could call him a RINO, because unlike most of the Republican establishment, he actually practices Constitutional government after campaign season is over.”
